Easy Star All-Stars have announced a UK tour in October showcasing their new album Easy Star's Lonely Hearts Dub Band - a unique re-imagining of The Beatles' classic Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. This continues Easy Star's series that transforms timeless albums into reggae masterpieces, begun with Dub Side Of The Moon (2003) and Radiodread (2006). The band will play tracks from all three albums on the October tour. Easy Star All-Stars—in any combination of members—have been a resounding success. The band has played at major festivals and headlined shows in over 20 countries on 5 continents. Their worldwide album sales have surpassed 250,000 units since 2003, with Dub Side of the Moon spending over 5 years on Billboard's Reggae Chart. MOJO picked Dub Side as the second best cover album of all time. Radiodread spent almost 2 years on Billboard's Reggae Chart and earned praise from the members of Radiohead themselves. |
